“When I was growing up, my grandfather gave me two insights: behave in a way that, when someone would speak unkindly of you, will cause them shame. And, if you believe in something strongly enough to stand up for it, do it in a stand up way.” Part of how I ended my first article.

I sure don’t know what started this rant but there are interesting points in the article.

I’m happy for the writers who have a place to be published.
I read more stuff in here than magazines on the news stand and just as much if not more than online publications. I’m not sure where I read is a good thing but it’s good enough for me.

I don’t wanna’ be a writer of fiction or articles although at one time I did and even back in high school received some encouragement to do so. And from a famous writer to give it a try. My love was music and I was successful at that in that I enjoyed it and in the words of one song writer, “If it isn`t successful, it`s OK. It`s successful to me.” Remember that, k?

Just because I don’t comment on an article doesn’t mean I like it and conversely just because I comment on an article doesn’t mean I like it. I don’t care for all of them and I read the ones on the external page not on the “inside” pages.

As for the TOS, this article isn’t much about TOS is it? When it comes to TOS writings one would need a lawyer to figure it out and I doubt if the lawyers who write them understand them.

I like this article.

GEEZ this was a masterpiece! I know there are some outside “competition” that wish to spew hate but I never knew it was recent.

My thing is, I stray away from negative thinking, aspects, overall the general term for those who wish to don the spectrum of the word and focus on the positive. If people wish to say crazy things, that’s on them. The fact is, numbers don’t lie and as well as the feedback.

This was a refreshing read from you, Jake! Seriously, I really felt that passion that you spoke about in your article and I’ve grown to appreciate this magazine and what I do more and more.

You, sir, just inspired me.

Thanks for the support Strom, is we all support each other when needed this magazine will always weather the storms we face and come out the other side. I love this place and the people that inhabit it, but you know that because you are one of them.
Great read as always.

I just wanna say that the people that take the time (their own time) to create this magazine are some of the nicest, open, helpful and encouraging people I’ve had the pleasure to meet. I’m not just saying this (to those who might scoff at me for saying so) to win brownie points here; that’s genuine, up-front honesty about how I see the staff here. And when you have such good bonds coupled with an extremely fair working ethos in the environment we share, well, HSM is what you get.

Norse has made something to be proud of here, and the people he’s gathered to help him create this have become the unwavering Atlases that endeavor to uphold the foundations he has placed. I already know I dont have to tell you guys you should be proud of HSM, coz it’s there in the article above this very comment, and every other article published here.

Oh, and also, Sticks n’ Stones y’know…
